Scientific Review Papers
The AP-LS Scientific Review Paper committee works to approve official Scientific Review Papers that are meant to objectively summarize the research literature in areas where there is a high degree of scientific clarity and consensus.
In its history, the Executive Committee has only approved three official Scientific Review Papers of the American Psychology-Law Society. Links to view each paper online and to download it as a pdf are included here below.

The focus of the book series reflects the diversity of the field of psychology and law as we will publish books on a broad range of topics. Published series books are described and available for purchase.
